Abstract

This paper intends to raise a discussion about the instrumentalization of the Sacred Texts from different faiths in Religious Education classes in Brazil, having as parameter the article 33 of the Education Guidelines and Bases Law which advocates a secular and non-proselytizing religious education. Such a task had started by a brief historical survey with the purpose of identify configurations that have been adopted in Religious Education in Brazil; as well as interpretative ambiguities in the current legal setup of Religious Education in the country. In a second step, we will address the issue of Sacred Texts, graphed and oral and its historical and cultural relevance. The third part of the dissertation had listed deadlocks that prevent the use of the Sacred Texts of religions in Religious Education classes in Brazil. The fourth and final chapter of the dissertation, had listed the possibilities to Sacred Texts from different religions, which can be coupled to build a comprehensive Religious Education, in order to this happen a hermeneutical proposal is suggested for such a task.
